An experimental 'deliberative democracy' process has been used by Watercare to get input from Aucklanders on future water sources, and it could provide a model for a more inclusive and equitable format for citizen participation.

The Newsroom article Citizen assemblies offer hope for democracy and climate change challenges describes how a diverse group of demographically representative Aucklanders has been working with Watercare to give a citizens' view on how the region’s water should be supplied in future decades.
Given that Watercare will become the largest part of the future "Northwater" Entity A, I'm hopeful that this process will be used more often in the future, to discuss, deliberate and decide the gnarly questions. It sure beats the social media wars and toxic narratives that we're engaging in at the moment.

While I have now taken my ballot to the local WDC service centre, I almost didn't vote, either. The same old, stale, postal, minimalistic voting system, combined with less options, choices, votes and reliable information than ever, and a range of mostly uninspiring candidates, all of whom are opposing Three Waters (instead of jumping at the opportunity to offload an "unsexy" utility service, cash in on a job well done and invest in the future of our district), really put me off.
I'm worried that we will lose another three, maybe even six years due to pointless debate, council inaction and community apathy, and I'm wondering if we wouldn't be better off installing commissioners and getting done what we all know needs doing.

I sincerely hope that our next council is a forward-looking one that finally grasps some of the many opportunities that the transition to a circular, sustainable, low-carbon economy offers.
